McKesson rose to activist prominence on Twitter after the events of Ferguson, Mo., which raised issues all over the country about how police interact with black American citizens. Johnson has only injected chaos into an already volatile situation with his actions, even reportedly tracking down the address of Washington Post reporter Wesley Lowery’s parents. Lowery also covered the events in Ferguson.

So not only did Chuck C Johnson threaten to kill Deray but he also found Wesley Lowery’s parents’ address. Umm @twitter , what’s going on?
